Decision in Favor OF the Grand Trunk.

Wednesday the case of the State of Maine
vs.. the Grand Trunk road for non-payment
of the State on railroads was heard in the
United States Circuit Court before Judge
Webb.
The original writ was served September
eth, 1882, under the State law requiring the
railroad. which is located partly in Maine
and partly out of the State, to pay tax for
the privilege of exercising its franchise in the
State of Maine, one-half the tax being paya-
BILE July l.t, and the other half October LIST.
In March of that year the Governor and
Council of Maine assessed this tax at S12,-
095. 56, to be paid by the defendant corpora
ton and duly levied it. But the Grand
Trunk refused to pay it and hence this suit
was brought. So the matter has gone on
since that time the tax being assessed each
year so levied, and the company declining to
pay, until now the sum which the State
claims has increased to very large amount
When the case came up before Judge
Webb Wednesday, Hon. Orville ID. Baker,
the Attorney General, appeared for the State,
and Mr.. Clarence Hale-in the absence of
Mr.. A. A. Strout the corporations counsel
for the Grand Trunk. The defense claimed
that the tax was an interference of the State
with the foreign commerce, a matter with
which Congress alone had right to deal.
The ruling of Judge Webb was that the
imposition of the tax was invalid, being a
regulation of foreign and interstate com
merce and accordingly he rendered Judgment
for the defendant corporation. The Attorney
General excepted to the ruling and the case
will Immediately go forward to Washington.
